description
Highfin Dragonfish. To 16.5 cm (6.5 in) TL (Hart 1973). Gulf of Alaska (Mecklenburg et al. 2002) to 03 ° 12 ’ S, 119 ° 26 ’ W (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). Depth: less than 60 m to 1,372 m (197 – 4,501 ft) (min.: Peden et al. 1985; max.: Love et al. 2005), and perhaps to 2,287 m (7,501 ft) (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California); this latter capture was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum depth.
